This part of the argument may have pissed the court directly off:
Acting solicitor general Noel Francisco forcefully argued in the government’s brief on Saturday night that presidential authority is “largely immune from judicial control” when it comes to deciding who can enter or stay in the United States.
Not sure how it works in the US, but in Commonwealth nations judges get a wee bit livid when told that politicians are immune from judicial control.

That was basically saying that Trump was above the law. A worrying sentiment.
Are we allowed to say he's wants to be a dictator now ?
